Wow he looks huge..!

Also - why is he in handcuffs? Please tell me this movie is not about "the good people of Earth think he's evil and want to put him in prison?"

I like it. Reminds me of Dr. Manhattans story from Watchmen. People would simply be afraid if there was single being with such immense powers.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Yes, that's the entire plot. It's actually based on a Law and Order episode.

Ice T cameo? I like it.

 

[Snaku]

Quoting for the next page.

Thanks.

 

[DMczaf]

..but you understand my point, right? This is a rather weird poster to release for a fucking Superman movie.

That's the point.

This is their "This is not Donner's Superman" poster. And I'm guessing the trailer will push this statement even more.

 

[glaurung]

Got to love how Snyder turns every movie he makes into a fashion show of sorts.

I am... weirdly OK with this.

 

[Anticitizen One]

That really doesn't look like superman at all

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Yeah it just looks like some white dude with black hair wearing a blue suit with a giant red/yellow S on it. Nothing like Superman.

Where's the red underwear? It ain't Superman!

 

[Penguin]

So weird with the light source.
Can hardly make out his face.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Well not surprising because it takes place in the same universe as Nolan's batman:

THIS is Superman:

Is there a new trailer coming soon?

I loved the teaser from last summer.

 

[DMczaf]

It's attached to The Hobbit.

They could just release the Comic Con trailer in HD and I wouldn't even be mad.

 

[Takamura-San]

Well not surprising because it takes place in the same universe as Nolan's batman:

Is my mind supposed to read this with the law and order voice?

Because it obviously did.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

THIS is Superman:

So is this. Oh I'm sorry he doesn't look like the new Superman from the comics that nobody reads and that are going to be rebooted in 6 months anyway.

 

[Good Job Bob]

I like the poster.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Perp walk, huh?

Not exactly alluring.

 

[SuperAndroid17]

Poster looks great

They've been going for over a year now.

Kinda looks like a young Travolta here.

[jett]

That's a strange choice for a poster.

uh he looks nothing like classic Superman either:

 

[BlueTsunami]

Can't wait for the 'Louis talks to warehouse worker about Supermans transgressions while he unloads boxes off a truck' scene

 

[Good Job Bob]

That's a strange choice for a poster.

Yeah they should have gone for something that looks bland and uninspired like every other modern movie poster.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

It's "don't trust the alien among us" which is the angle DC has been pushing heavily in its Superman comics for a number of years now.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

uh he looks nothing like classic Superman either:

He looks like Superman. Show that pic of Cavill to 100 people on the street and they will know exactly who it is. Such a dumb stance to take.

 

[JdFoX187]

I imagine we'll see a more traditional trailer by the time the movie comes out. Still, I like it. It might be a cliche story, but I like that they're focusing on more of a realistic response rather than everyone absolutely loving him immediately.

 

[Akahige]

lens flare + low quality picture nice

 

[DMczaf]

Hopefully Superman meets a bum during his first night out.

Maybe he'll meet a bum in jail.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

He becomes a bum.

What if they retcon it so that Supes was the bum from Begins, and that's how Superman and Batman met and formed the Justice League!?

 

[cutmeamango]

Filter looks weird, abs look weird.

 

[Kinyou]

uh he looks nothing like classic Superman either:

Is superman stopping bullets mid air all matrix like?

 

[NinjaBoiX]

I love his style, Sucker Punch is a glorious looking movie. I mean, it's garbage, but it's exciting, beautiful garbage.

 

[DMczaf]

He becomes a bum.

That's gonna be one hell of a push.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

He becomes a bum.

please don't give them any ideas.


.....nice coat

 

[jett]

I don't think it's visually appealing for a movie poster. He has a strange look on his face. It's like they grabbed a random shot from the movie and applied a bunch of filters to it and called it a day.

 

[rekameohs]

Lens flares on title and release date had me laughing.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Yeah they should have gone for something that looks bland and uninspired like every other modern movie poster.

That's... that's what they did?

I think that's what they did.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Awful poster.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Awful poster.

Agreed.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Ice T cameo? I like it.

"Hang on, you mean to say that if he's an alien...he was BORN on a planet that's NOT this one?"

 

[Secret Fawful]

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Awful poster.

Leave Solo out of this

 

[Joel Was Right]

That poster looks like a screen grab from that bootleg trailer a few months back

 

[strafer]

Can't see shit captain, the lens flare is in the way.

 

[Platy]

Holy world of cardboard !

 

[Raptor]

I like it, but the lighting or something looks off.

 

[BlueTsunami]

lol get it

 

[triplestation]

before he was superman he was clark

 

[BattleMonkey]

It's next gen video game the poster! Blurry as heck and big lens flare.
